I'm a very lazy sysadmin, and, although I know that is better to have full
control over updates... I let yum-cron do the updates for me.
I administer very few server, I always have a good backup handy, and wen I'm on
vacation I disable the auto-updates...
For now (about 3 years of doing this) I never had real issues. The worse thing
that happened was the updates not working for some dependency issue, which
needed to be sorted manually.
Again, I guess it really depends on what you are administering and if/how you
can handle a server outage, so you have to carefully make your own decision
based on your environment.
